Cardy Films have released their brand new and highly anticipated drama series “Life of Hers”, written by Samantha Chioma, directed by Ola Masha and Olan Collardy. The series, which reflects the lives and friendships of four women living in London is an exploration of the complexities of life as a young woman of the African diaspora and some of the unique conflicts that can arise between inherited traditions and assimilated new cultures.

The entire first season is available to watch on the Cardy Films Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/CardyFilmsTV) – A total of five episodes, all beautifully captured and filled with themes every viewer will be able to relate to.

Produced by Waïki Harnais and starring some of the UK’s most promising young black British actors, Life of Hers has already generated a strong interest from webseries lovers around the world, with viewers describing it as “something refreshing”, “a narrative black women can relate to”…

“This is a series that is unapologetically written for women and by a woman writer” explains series director Ola Masha. “When it comes to having prominent black women in the media, we’ve had one or two answers but still written from a man’s perspective, with women doing what men imagine them to do.
